Libraries will be protected until 2025 but some may move, says council

All libraries in Nottinghamshire will be protected from closure “through until 2025”, a leading councillor has confirmed.

However, he says some sites may move to new locations or ‘co-locate’ as the authority looks to cut costs on some expensive, old buildings.

Council figures show visitor numbers for the county’s 60 static libraries hit 112,087 for the period of April 1 to June 30, 2021. This figure is 19.49 per cent of the target set by the council.
